When you deal with anxiety and depression all of your life, it can be such an overwhelming burden to carry.
I’m in my 75’s and still laboring to manage my mental and emotional health almost daily. It’s been this way since I was in highuniversity and maybe before. Much of that time was spent at home. I grew up exhausting and my pal and I didn’t have much in our home, there wasn’t any sort of residential Heating as well as Air Conditioning in our apartment and I wore hand me downs. My parents were so beat down from their tasks and trying to keep us fed that they often turned to alcohol to numb the pain. I’m ecstatic that I at least steered clear of that, however still, I’ve had to easily pay close attention to just how I’m feeling and adjust when need be, then one sure fire way to help me stop spiraling has been to get out of the air conditioner and get some sun on my face. Literally just putting my face into the sunshine can help me pull out of a dive into dark spots. Often times, I’d hold on with all I had just to get to dinnertime. Then, I’d get out of the commercial Heating as well as Air Conditioning for some air however it was the sun I was looking for. In fact, I live where I do because the sun shines here more than just about someplace else, but as I’ve slowed down, I’ve needed so help betting my vitamin sunshine. Thankfully, I now have a ductless heat pump out in my sunroom. This way I can have some air conditioner when the heat gets to be too much for me to be outside. I’m sure thankful for that because the sunshine still keeps me on track.
